Chapter 122 - The War of the Stronghold

Fatty Ox, who had been abruptly grabbed by Xiang Yun, cried out in shock, thinking that he had been caught by the Black Gold Ape.

"Shut up, it's me!"

"Hurry up and enter the cave! This place is too narrow, we can't avoid it!"

Xiang Yun growled into the fat ox man's ear. Without waiting for the other side to react, he pulled the ox man and ran into the cave!

Now that the cave was sealed, it would be impossible to get out in a short period of time. Furthermore, there was also such a terrifying Black Gold Ape.

They could only enter the cave and enter a wider s.p.a.ce in order to deal with the Golden Ape!

However, the Black Gold Ape was not affected by the darkness. A fierce glint flashed in the latter's eyes as he slapped out with his palm, his speed as fast as lightning. In an instant, he had caught up to Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu!

In the next moment, the golden ape's giant palm suddenly struck Xiang Yun and Fatty Niu's backs!

"Bam!"

"En!"

The two of them let out a m.u.f.fled groan at the same time and tumbled to the ground!

"d.a.m.n, this is awesome!"

Xiang Yun gritted his teeth, enduring the pain as his heart was filled with shock!

After all, he was a Four Clouds martial pract.i.tioner, and with his thick cloud energy and powerful physique, he had the confidence to fight with most of the Five Cloud martial artists.

However, this ape only gave him a single slap and his internal organs were all knocked out. It was obvious how strong he was!

However, Xiang Yun didn't even have time to think as he forcefully endured his discomfort. Dragging Fatty Niu, who was also swaying and unable to speak, the two of them charged into the cave. The Golden Ape was chasing after them again!

Just as the two of them reached the circular area within the cave, the sound of heavy, rapid footsteps could be heard approaching from behind them!

As the strong wind whistled past, the Dark Gold Ape's huge claws grabbed towards their heads. Its speed was as fast as the wind and lightning!

However, Fatty Ox was so scared that his legs went limp. Xiang Yun let go of him, but his body continued to fall. He had no strength to dodge at all.

In a moment of desperation, Xiang Yun could only send another kick flying towards Fatty Niu, causing the Black Gold Ape's claw to strike nothing but air as it smashed deeply into the ground!

At the same time, Xiang Yun used the recoil to try and escape. However, the Dark Gold Ape's attack was too fast, even if its reaction was fast enough, it was still unavoidable.

"Bam!"

Xiang Yun's body was like a sandbag as it flew outwards, smas.h.i.+ng heavily into a protruding stone wall!

"Ugh!"

Xiang Yun groaned once more as he tumbled to the ground, his face contorted from the intense pain. The cold sweat on his forehead had already condensed into a bead, the faint smell of blood coming from his throat.

"Boss, save me!"

Xiang Yun turned his head to look and saw that the golden ape had already charged in front of Fatty Niu. It grabbed onto one of Fatty Niu's legs and lifted him up upside down!

"Sigh!"

Xiang Yun felt rather depressed. At this moment, he was completely minding his own business, yet he still had Fatty Niu as a burden.

With that, Xiang Yun endured the pain as he turned and flew towards the Golden Crow Ape!

"BOOM!"

The fist landed heavily on the back of the ape's head, but the ape only shook its head slightly. It immediately flipped its palm and slapped the back of the ape's head!

In an instant, before Xiang Yun could even land on the ground, he felt his vision go black as his entire body flew backwards, cras.h.i.+ng into a stone wall!

"Holy sh * t!"

Xiang Yun grimaced in pain, his body twitching slightly. The arms that had been smas.h.i.+ng down on the Black Gold Ape was numbed by the force, numb and unconscious!

The body of this Dark Gold Ape was just too tyrannical, it was as hard as steel. Xiang Yun had exerted all his strength to smash it, but was unable to injure it in the slightest, and had instead shaken it to the point of choking!

"Boss!" Fatty Ox's cries for help rang out again. He was lifted up to his mouth by the Black Gold Ape with the fat cow in his hand.

The latter wanted to eat this fellow in one bite, but Fatty Ox's body was as round as a ball of meat. Despite the ape's gaping maw, no one knew where he was going to bite down from.

The b.l.o.o.d.y mouth, which was still dripping with saliva, breathed out a fishy smell as it searched for a place to place itself in Fatty Niu's mouth. He was so scared that he started to sob, tears flowing out of his eyes!

"Oh my G.o.d! I've eaten so many precious delicacies, it looks like I'm going to be the monster's food today!"

Immediately, he gritted his teeth and rolled his body. He once again charged at the ape. The ape no longer foolishly used its fists and legs to fight against the ape's powerful physical body. Instead, the ape pulled out the Wandering Dragon Sword from its waist with one hand!

"b.a.s.t.a.r.d, look at my sword!"

Xiang Yun gave a loud shout as he gripped his sword with both hands. The Wandering Dragon Sword in his hands shone with a deep blue light as he suddenly stabbed at the rear leg of the Dark Gold Ape!

A piercing sound was heard as the Wandering Dragon Sword drew a long arc and flew towards the Dark Gold Ape!

The latter was about to open her mouth and bite down on Fatty Niu when she suddenly felt a sharp aura coming from behind her. The ape's fur suddenly stood on end as it turned around in a flash of lightning!

At this moment, Xiang Yun's Wandering Dragon Sword was only a few feet away from the Black Gold Ape. The ape's blood-red eyes narrowed as it suddenly extended its enormous claw and grabbed at the blade!

The sound of flesh being split rang out as the Wandering Dragon Sword was caught by the ape's huge claws. Xiang Yun couldn't help but rejoice as all the cloud energy in his body was instantly poured into his arms, erupting with an even more powerful force!

This was because the Wandering Dragon Sword had suddenly stopped, as if it had been blocked by a huge force!

"Roar!"

The pain from his claws made the Golden Ape let out a furious roar. It abruptly dropped its hand and the struggling Fatty Ox suddenly turned around, staring fixedly at Xiang Yun. The powerful arm holding the Wandering Dragon Sword suddenly swung!

Xiang Yun only felt an irresistible force from the sword hilt that he was holding. It was so strong that he couldn't control it, and staggered as he fell back!

"Roar!"

The Dark Gold Ape roared and used both of its arms, wanting to break the Wandering Dragon Sword on the spot!

The latter's strength was tremendous, and under the full force of the explosion, the Wandering Dragon Sword actually bent and deformed, and its surface circulated with bursts of light!

"What!"

Xiang Yun's eyes nearly popped out when he saw this. This Wandering Dragon Sword was abnormally tough, but it was a Grade Two Cloud Weapon. Could it be that it was directly broken by the Black Gold Ape?

Fortunately, the Wandering Dragon Sword was a Grade 2 Cloud Weapon. Even though the Dark Gold Ape had immense strength, its fur had yet to fully transform into silver and its strength was limited.

Seeing that it had used all of its strength and was unable to break the blade that had injured it, the Black Gold Ape immediately roared out in rage and suddenly flung the longsword in its hand!

"Chi!"

"Roar!"

Having done all of this, the Golden Ape did not hesitate at all. With bloodshot eyes, it charged forward like a bolt of lightning, pouncing towards Xiang Yun!

"So fast!"

Seeing the Golden Ape pouncing at him like a phantom, Xiang Yun did not dare to hesitate.

Suddenly, he activated the Hundred Transformations Steps under his feet, his body slanted, and with one hand on the stone wall, his body moved more than three meters away!

The Dark Gold Ape's palm struck the air and landed on a protruding rock wall. That solid rock wall actually exploded with a loud bang, sending rubble flying everywhere!

Xiang Yun couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he saw the scene of the rock breaking. This Black Gold Ape was simply too ferocious. There was no way for him to fight it; he only had room to dodge!

Xiang Yun did not dare to be negligent. Using the Divine Transformations Movement Technique to the extreme, his feet were covered in oil and his body was twisted.

He crossed his legs and with a tap on the ground, his body actually shot up and slipped out from between the two hands of the Golden Ape!

Two enormous palm prints that were nearly a foot deep were left on the ground.

Just as Xiang Yun landed on the ground, another strong gust of wind came from behind him, and the Dark Gold Ape once again charged forward viciously!

Although the latter's body was enormous, her ape type agility far surpa.s.sed that of ordinary beasts. The latter's speed was actually even faster than Xiang Yun's. Even if it was the Divine Movement Technique, it was still unable to break free!

The dark golden ape was also extremely nimble and powerful.

Xiang Yun secretly groaned in his heart as he loudly shouted at Fatty Niu! "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Just a moment ago, Fatty Niu had been thrown against the wall by the golden ape. Now, he was still dizzy and could not react in time.

Now that he heard Xiang Yun's shout, it was only then that the latter seemed to wake up from a dream. He picked up the Sunflower Dew Bow that had fallen to the side and hurriedly fumbled on the ground, picking up an arrow!

At this moment, Xiang Yun had no way to answer Fatty Niu because he had already been forced into a corner of the cave by the Black Gold Ape. There was nowhere for him to retreat to.

The Golden Ape opened up its palms and charged at Xiang Yun. Xiang Yun had wanted to find the gap in between the attack of the Golden Ape and jump out, but the latter opened his mouth wide and sealed off the gaps in his palms. Xiang Yun's only way out!

In that moment, Xiang Yun's Hundred Transformations Steps resembled a dragon swimming in a shallow sh.o.r.e, or a hawk flying through a cage. The wondrous movements of the past had lost all effect in this moment.

Seeing that the powerful palm of the Black Gold Ape was about to strike down, and the fat cow was fl.u.s.tered and didn't have the time to shoot his arrows properly, he was sure that the close fire would not be able to keep up!

In this moment of crisis, Xiang Yun could no longer afford to care about the profound meaning behind his Hundred Transformations Steps. Gritting his teeth, he stomped down hard on his feet and leapt onto the precipitous cliff wall as his body abruptly climbed up.

It was like a gecko as its body pressed against the wall. It took a few steps forward and its body shot out like lightning. It actually managed to pa.s.s through the crack on the Golden Ape's side!

The Black Gold Ape missed and directly smashed a large piece of the mountain rock in the corner into pieces, cras.h.i.+ng down!

"This …"

At almost the same instant he had dashed out, Xiang Yun had also been standing rooted to the spot in a daze.

At that moment, he suddenly had a feeling of comprehension. It was as if he had faintly grasped something, but he didn't seem to have any leads.

Xiang Yun could faintly sense that this was an opportunity for him to break through to the Divine Path's Hundred Transformations!
